What did that cost to get done if ya don't mind??
Long story short I saw a Regency truck with one, gave Regency a call, shipped them my console lid and the Regency Trucks vin # and they did it for $75. Not a bad deal I thought.... it should be able to be duplicated pretty easily by a good upholstery shop tho, mainly just need to fill that big void in the middle up w/ something. Im not really sure what they used? foam maybe?

I can shoot you a couple pics if you wanted to take it to an upholstery shop for them to duplicate?

That looks kickass John, the 03+ console has really grown on me, it's nicer than my 99-02 style. I like what SlvrSierra4.8 with his console lid, I have to do something similar with mine as the 99-02 console lid sits even lower than the 03+, and I have to keep a small pillow with me to rest my arm on. I plan to make something with foam covered in fabric eventually

What'd you use to make that gauge bezel fit?! did you just 3M it to the lip on the console?!

I took, cut the heads off stainless stainless bolts, then welded them to the back of the plate.. Marked the spots on the tray, marked and drilled them, simply bolted it to the tray..
